Not the greatest pic, but gets the point across...

Slightly better pic taken the night before...
 
Mere photos do not do this instrument justice.

Hey that is a really nice looking bass! I like the contrast between the dark top and the sandwhich.
 
 
It goes well with the Patriots shirt too ;)

You lucky, lucky man... ;-)
 
Interestingly looking right-hand technique, btw. Do you always play close to the neck?

Good catch Jarek! Apparently I do it more than I realize. It depends on the sound or feel I'm after. I sometimes play on the fingerboard, a technique I stole from watching John Entwistle. When using a plectrum I know I play between the pickups, but that doesn't happen that often....

Hello Brother Paul the John one!!!!
Nice bass! BTW: the near-over the fingerboard playing is also the thing of SC I think.
So ...I know where I can get the bass, can anybody tell me where I can get those nice shirts???

BPtbo,
 
If one is going to steal techniques there are certainly worse people to steal from than SC and JE!!! Although in the thread with all the SC pics Mica posted, it seems his hands are all over that pretty Alembic. Practically molesting it!
 
As far as the shirts go.... are you trying to tell me that Wal-Mart has not yet invaded Belgium???!!! If so, I think we may have identified a business opportunity!
